    Every single yearly security training at work talks about keeping devices up to date. We get quizzed on it. Every place i’ve been at has talked about keeping your device up to date. I’m talking since school up to my degree at university (~10 years).

    if at this point people don’t know that you should update, it’s on them for being ignorant about it or on them for not doing so.

    for me, a good test of whether i own something or not is to see if your device forces you to update. I’m sure 90% people using computers understand the security implications of not updating and not rebooting, they just have work they need to do now and rebooting the computer would make it go away.

    we really need to stop babying users. If they fuck their own system up, it’s on them. give them warnings, sure. Give them heads up. but don’t take it into your own hands to protect someone who doesn’t want protecting.
